Evanescence - Field Of Innocence

[Iesu, Rex amirabilis]

I still remember the world
From the eyes of a child
Slowly those feelings
Were clouded by what I know now

Where has my heart gone?
An uneven trade for the real world
Oh! I, I want to go back to
Believing in everything
And knowing nothing at all

I still remember the sun
Always warm on my back
Somehow it seems colder now

Where has my heart gone?
Trapped in the eyes of a stranger
Oh! I, I want to go back to
Believing in everything

[Iesu, Rex amirabilis]
[et triumphator nobilis]
[dulcedo ineffabilis]
[totus desiderabilis]

[As the years pass by before my face
[totus desiderabilis]
As wars rage before me
Finding myself in these last days of existence
This parasite inside me I forced it out
In the darkness of the storm
[Iesu, Rex amirabilis]
Lies an evil
But it's me]

Where has my heart gone?
An uneven trade for the real world
Oh! I, I want to go back to
Believing in everything


Oh! Where? Where has my heart gone?
Trapped in the eyes of a stranger
Oh! I, I want to go back to
Believing in everything

I still remember

Iesu, Rex amirabilis



"Based on a poem written by Ben Moody. He's also reading it in the background.

According to MutantQuasar, an Evboarder, the Latin chanting repeated throughout the song, translated to english, means:

'O Jesus, King most wonderful!
Thou Conqueror renowned!
Thou Sweetness most ineffable!
in whom all joys are found!'"
